 tory of d Quiet Community.

York; Shakers are a quiet com- munity, secluded from the fret and worry of the outside world. They are widely known, how ever, for their strict honor and probity in busin ess.
 The Shakers believe that na- ture has remedy for every dis ease. A few have been found the rest gre as yet unknown. Many were discovered by acci- dent. Others came to light as the result of patient experiment and research.
 Nervous Dyspepsla ls a com paratively neac disease, growing out of the conditions of modern life. It is a joint affection of the digestive organs and of the nervous system. These two were formerly treated as sepa- rate ailments, and 1t was left for the clear-sighted Shakers to prove that the basis of this terrible and often fatal compli- cation lies chiefly in the disord- cred and depraved functions of digestion and nutrition. They reasoned thus:-"If we can in- duce the stomach to do its work, and stimulate the excre- tive organs to drive out of the body the poisonous waste mat ters which remain after the life giving elements of the food have been absorbed, we shall have conquered Nervous Dys- pepsia and Nervous Exhaust ion. And they were right. Knowing the infallible power of Shaker Extract (Seigel's Syrup) in less complicated though sim lar diseases, they resolved to test 1t fully in this. To leave no ground for doubt they prescribed the remedy in hundreds of cases which had been pronounced in- curable-with perfect success in every instance where their directions as to living and diet were scrupulously followed. Nervous Dyspe.s.a q and Ex- haustion Is peculiarly Ameri- can disease. To a g.eatcr or less extent l,aH t'3 people of this coun'"y f' r from it. both sexes anj all ares. In no country in the world are there so many insane asylums filled to overdowing, all resulting from this a.ollnine disease. Its leading symptoms are these !: Frequent or contirual head ache; n dull pain at the base of the hlain; bad breath :; nau- seOus erl erlc,ati0ns; the rising of sour ,ad pungcnt fluids to the throat a sense of oppress- jon and faintness at the pit of the stomach; ilatulenco; wake ,ulness and loss of sleep; dis gust with food even when weak from the need oft; sticky or sliny matter on inc teeth or in the mouth, especially on ris- ing in the morning; furred and coated tonGUc; dul| eyes; cold hands and feet; constipation {; dry or ronsb skm; inability to fix the mind on any labor call ing for continuous attention; and oppressive and sad fore bodings and fears.
 All this terrible group Shaker ENuact lSeigel's ,yrnp) removes by it's pos tive, powerful, direct yet painless and gentle action upon the functions of digestion and assimilation.
